Planua vs StageHQ

Planua turns photos of empty property rooms into staged interiors intended for listings. Users can refine furniture, styling, and details while keeping the original room perspective and layout. Staging can be guided by room type, style, buyer profile, mood, color direction, brands, or exact furniture pieces. Shared project folders organize property work, drafts, client reviews, approvals, and final exports. The homepage lists 4K exports and commercial use for staged images in listings, portals, brochures, and campaigns. Planua runs on the web and is designed for real estate agencies, staging teams, architects, and interior professionals. A free plan and free trial are listed. The privacy policy says uploaded content and prompts may be sent to Google Generative Language API services and Replicate for image generation and editing. It also says some providers may process data outside the EU or EEA, using adequacy decisions where available or safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. Pricing differs between two schedules: the homepage lists Essential at €39/mo and Agency at €249/mo, while the linked guide lists Starter at €19/mo, Pro Studio at €59/mo, and Agency at €149/mo. The provider is a sole proprietorship based in Lüneburg, Germany.

StageHQ creates digitally staged versions of room photos for real estate listings. Choose Precise Staging, Creative Staging, AI Renovation, or Remove Furniture, then select from more than 30 design styles or describe a custom one. Uploads can be JPG, PNG, or WebP files up to 4K; StageHQ says most rooms are processed in under 30 seconds. Exports include an MLS-ready JPG at 1536×1024 and a full-resolution file. Purchased images carry a commercial license for MLS, marketing, and print use. The service works in a browser on Mac, Windows PC, iPad, or phone without installation, and is listed for Android, iOS, and web. Three free watermarked previews are available without a credit card. Starter costs $19, paid once for 20 staged photos; Professional costs $39, paid once for 100 and includes batching a listing. Agency costs $69, paid once for 250 photos and bulk download. The terms say purchases are final, with no refunds, including for unused credits or dissatisfaction.
